A South Carolina police officer's attention to detail during a traffic stop resulted in a woman rescued from a man wanted for a shooting.
Everyone is familiar with the phrase, "It's the little things that matter." That can apply to about any and every situation. Whether it’s writing and sending a company-wide email, baking a cake or building a table, attention to detail is key. It can often be the difference between success and failure.
Paying close attention to detail is what likely led to an officer in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, saving a woman being held against her will, according to CBS News.
The situation began in the early-morning hours on May 28 when Officer Kayla Wallace, with the North Myrtle Beach Police Department, spotted a white Jeep run a red light. Kayla, who happened to be patrolling in that area, immediately tracked down the Jeep and initiated a traffic stop.
When Kayla approached the Jeep, she noticed that a female was driving with a man sitting in the passenger seat, according to the North Myrtle Beach Police Department.
As Kayla was conducting the traffic stop, she picked up on something rather odd.
Kayla, when talking to the female driver and the male driver, noticed the female driver signaling to her for help. She mouthed, "Help me" repeatedly. She only did this, though, when the male passenger wasn't looking at the woman driving the white Jeep.
